Default Anyone doing NARRA this weekend at VIR?

Any members going to be there?

Heading out tomorrow for Sat and Sun with the Vipers. Supposed to be 100+, but I pulled my rad and ac condensor and cleaned both out completely. Got front left SKF hub on, new Amsoil trans fluid in, retorqued everything in the rear, changed oil. Got everything done except Accusump fixed. They are still checking out my pressure switch.

I thought about this event then work sent me to china for a month. But I am instructing at the NASA event on the 20th :-) Maybe the temps will not be quite as bad as I have seen it the past few weeks... Should have a new oil report in about 6 weeks ... will let ya know if my TI levels dropped off with the new springs

Safe travels.

I'll probably swing by tomorrow to watch. Thinking about running with USGTC GT2 class next year and want to watch how they run their events. Will try to swing by and say hi to some of you guys.

Hope your car is fast. The GT2 Vipers are crazy fast for the hp (vs. say, an uncorked restricted fully built ST2 car on steamroller stickies).

Hope to see you there. Thanks for getting me the trans and diff fluids so quickly. I got trans done, but sometime during the past 3 yrs, my siphon pump got busted and I didn't realize until I had drained tranny at 10:00pm Thurs. I was able to super glue it enough to get fluid replaced. Will do diff later.

I did Rd ATL with NARRA back in Apr. Seems odd being in the minority, but the Vipers are pretty cool.
